Peerless Battle Spirit

Qin Nan had no interest in the people of the Wuji Alliance. In the past, he would not show any mercy since they had attacked him in the first place. However, his full attention was on the real treasure left by the Heaven-Shattering Martial Monarch.

After entering the boulder with the aura of the Heaven-Shattering Saber, a strong force encapsulated his figure and brought him to another space.

As soon as Qin Nan landed on the ground, he immediately scanned his surroundings.

The place covered an area with a circumference of over a thousand li, which consisted of an ordinary mountain, a lake, some woods, and a huge residence that covered an area with a circumference of a few hundred li which was made of some ancient wood. There was nothing unusual about it when he first looked at it.

ROAR!

A shocking roar could be heard coming from the woods all of a sudden!

Following this, several enormous figures lunged toward Qin Nan at a shocking pace. Within three breaths’ time, the shadows of over thirty giant figures loomed over Qin Nan’s head with bloodshot eyes glaring at Qin Nan with strong murderous intent.

These were over thirty powerful beasts, each with a cultivation of the peak Martial Progenitor Realm!

“Senior Heaven-Shattering, I’m Qin Nan. I’m here to ask for your help!”

Qin Nan glanced at the beasts and brought his fists together.

“Humph, beat him up.”

A cold harrumph could be heard coming from the residence.

The beasts immediately uttered ferocious roars into the sky before they dived forward while unleashing their attacks. In the blink of an eye, the space above Qin Nan’s head was filled with incredible danger.

“Slash!”

Qin Nan struck forward with the Heaven-Shattering Saber.

A strong ray of saber intent which felt like it had originated from the desolated era sprang into the sky, which shattered the attacks instantly in the form of a crescent.

“Be...gone!”

Qin Nan stomped the ground and let out a roar. Nine Martial Trees were unleashed from his back, which transformed into nine colorful rays.

BANG BANG BANG!

A series of deafening explosions echoed through the entire area!

The beasts were constantly knocked backward by the nine Martial Trees as if they had stumbled into some ancient ferocious beasts, causing them to moan in agony!

After all, when Qin Nan unleashed his nine Martial Trees, even the geniuses ranked at the top of the Monarch Ranking were no match against him, thus they were more than enough to handle the beasts!

“Well well, you’re quite full of yourself after learning the Sky-Desolating Saber Art, huh?”

At that instant, a perverted-looking old man wearing a beast hide with messy hair standing on top of a wooden plank flew into the sky.

The old man was none other than the Heaven-Shattering Martial Monarch himself. The only difference from the ones that Qin Nan had met in the past was that this was the real him.

The Heaven-Shattering Martial Monarch reached out his skinny hand and simply waved, emitting an incredible pressure which instantly hindered the attacks of the nine Martial Trees. His gaze toward Qin Nan was filled with a hint of disdain, “You have the guts to show yourself when you can’t even achieve the Martial Monarch Realm? It seems like you’ve completely forgotten about my advice!”

The Heaven-Shattering Martial Monarch’s figure began to emit a crackling noise.

A ferocious gust began to sweep into the surroundings with him as the center.

He had already told Qin Nan not to look for him if he had yet to possess powerful strength. Otherwise, he would beat the crap out of him.

“Senior, even though I did not achieve the Martial Monarch Realm, I’ve learned something more important than that in the Monarch Horoscope Contest.”

Qin Nan said with a calm expression.

He was a lunatic, and so was the Heaven-Shattering Martial Monarch. His thoughts would surely intrigue the Heaven-Shattering Martial Monarch.

“Oh? Something more important than achieving the Martial Monarch Realm? What would that shit be?” The Heaven-Shattering Martial Monarch raised his eyebrows and spoke, “Enlighten me; if I’m not satisfied with it, you should prepare yourself to spend the next one or two years in rehabilitation!”

“I’m here to ask if senior knows any way to merge my nine Martial Trees into one.”

Qin Nan slowly said.

“Merging nine Martial Trees into one? Humph, I thought it would be something more fascinating. Isn’t that normal? If you don’t realize you can merge the nine Martial Trees, there must be something wrong with your mind...” The Heaven-Shattering Martial Monarch’s gaze displayed a hint of disdain.

However, before he could finish, a brilliant golden glow was emitted from Qin Nan’s figure with strong pressure.

The beasts nearby began to cry in panic as if they had stumbled into something horrifying.

“Could this be...”

The Heaven-Shattering Martial Monarch immediately opened his eyes wide.

“That’s right, it’s the primary monarch force that I’ve obtained from the nine Monarch Horoscopes, which is equivalent to the power of three Monarch Horoscopes. Besides that, the Monarch Ranking has no idea that I have it.” Qin Nan’s lips curled upward as he said, “Senior, I’m planning to merge the nine Martial Trees into one because I’ve decided to achieve the Martial Monarch Realm on my own. What do you think?”

The Heaven-Shattering Martial Monarch wore a dumbfounded look.

In the past, there were many geniuses who had tried to achieve the Martial Monarch Realm on their own, and the Heaven-Shattering Martial Monarch had no doubt been one of them.

That being said, the primary monarch force and the primary god force were in the hands of the Monarch Ranking and the God Ranking. Despite having various ideas on how to achieve their goals, they had no chance to secure the primary monarch force. As such, the had no choice but to participate in the Monarch Horoscope Contest!

And now Qin Nan had been able to retrieve the primary monarch force?

How did he even do it?

“Senior?”

Qin Nan probed when he saw the Heaven-Shattering Martial Monarch falling silent.

Did this mean even his thoughts of achieving the Martial Monarch Realm was not enough to intrigue him?

The Heaven-Shattering Martial Monarch collected his thoughts and placed his hands at his waist. He stared into the sky and burst out laughing, “HAHAHAHA! Monarch Ranking, no matter how cunning you are, you would never think that Qin Nan was able to retrieve the primary monarch force! I can’t wait to see how long you can still act scornfully!”

His face was filled with excitement.

It was as if he finally had the chance to release a grudge that had been compressing his chest for countless years.

Qin Nan was slightly startled.

“Hehe!” The Heaven-Shattering Martial Monarch recovered and took a step forward. He slapped Qin Nan’s shoulder in a friendly manner with eyes full of excitement, “As expected of my successor! You have never let me down! Achieving the Martial Monarch Realm on your own! This is f**king brilliant! This is so much better than inheriting the Monarch Horoscope...”

He was so excited that he began to mumble.

He clearly knew that once Qin Nan achieved the Martial Monarch Realm on his own, he would no longer be a mimicked Martial Monarch, but a true Martial Monarch!

“Cough cough, senior, since when have I become your successor?” Qin Nan let out a cough and corrected the statement, before he said sternly, “Senior, even though I now have the primary monarch force, I have no idea how to merge the nine Martial Trees. Do you have any ideas?”

His main concern now was to merge the nine Martial Trees.

To his surprise, the Heaven-Shattering Martial Monarch opened his eyes wide hearing this, “What do you mean by that? You’re surely my successor, why are you denying it? Look at what’s in your hand! The Heaven-Shattering Saber, I used my life to refine it, and you’re still denying it...”

A line instantly surfaced on Qin Nan’s forehead.

Seeing his reaction, the Heaven-Shattering Martial Monarch immediately switched his tone and chuckled, “As a matter of fact, there’s a way if you want to merge the nine Martial Trees.”

“Mm?” Qin Nan was intrigued.

The eyes of the Heaven-Shattering Martial Monarch flickered as he slowed down his talking speed, “The Canglan Tree.”

As he uttered the name, it felt like everything inside this confined space had frozen.
